Meeting Monday 19 November 2012

AT LAST!!!!!
2012 FINAL MEETING FOR THE YEAR

The final meeting for
2012 of the North Richmond and Districts Community Action Association will be
held Monday 19th November 2012 at 7:15pm in the North
Richmond Community Centre, William Street, North Richmond.

Your Committee has been
active with submissions to RMS and the Department of Heritage on your behalf
come and hear the results.

There is an exhibition by RMS
in Windsor on 24/11/2012( details in the Gazette) on the plans for” Option 1”
their preferred option for the new bridge in Windsor that will destroy and
damage some of our earliest historical buildings not to mention the businesses
there. I urge you to attend the exhibition and then go and see for yourselves
how Thompson Square will be destroyed and then make an informed submission. One
must remember that it will only be a 2 lane bridge with no accommodation for
the increase in traffic that will come from the proposed developments in
Glossodia and that there is land suitable for subdivision at Wilberforce and
other parts west of the river. We deserve better than another second rate
solution.

Citizens Against Windsor Bridge
(CAWB) has delivered a petition with over 12,000 signatures to State Parliament
against this option , unfortunately NONE of the 3 members of State Parliament
whose electorates are in the Hawkesbury would come out to receive it so it was
left to members of the Opposition to do so.

The first meeting for 2013
will be on Monday January 21/1/2013 .

I look forward to seeing as
many as possible at the meeting on Monday 19/11/12, as usual there will be a
raffle, a cuppa and bikkies and good company!!!
